Warning to my Mando Cafe friends. I think lots of folks here use e-bay. I did and for several years had fun buying instruments and music related items. But my identity was stolen and 8 expensive items were sold in France under my ID. I noted it and e-mailed the buyers - no money lost or stolen. e-bay is working on it and will fix it, but they are slow to do so. I think this was partly my fault. I may have answered a fake e-bay message and gave up info. I am not particularly computer savvy, but my advice is to change your 'secure site' ID ever month or two and combine letters and numbers. And be leary of giving out info to what could be a fraud. Good wishes. Jack
